In this paper, we propose a two-layer architecture coordination model based on fuzzy reinforcement learning for multi-agent system. Agents make use of fuzzy inference system to choose the optimal behavior locally and confer the intentions and actions of others according to their state information. Then coordination layer harmonizes sub-goals among agents and assigns rational task to each agent while learning the strategies of agents using fuzzy reinforcement learning. As a result, agents choose and execute proper action to accomplish the desired task together in action layer. The simulation results showed that the performance of attacking is obviously improved in the RoboCup soccer simulation game.","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123920801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It demonstrates as to how to make use of the Semantic Web Infrastructure in the event of an Industry. We come-up with a methodology, that needed to try out (or in fact already a portion is tested) in live industrial environment. Interoperability design is extensively spoken out; and to some degree is trying to specify generally the requirements and challenges. But, what is the scenery of this revolt in technology? And what new technical challenges will it present? The ubiquity of computation and communication is not the only symptom of the insurgency. Much of this emerging computation is embedded; the processors in your phones, cars, personal digital assistants, and home appliances. Increasingly they are in concert with other computational fundamentals as part of a larger ensemble. This broad span of capabilities represents a fresh pattern of computing. Accurately when we realize that the ubiquity of communication bandwidths over and over again; makes it possible to position computational mission at whatsoever point in this chain of command; makes the most sense. We can do better - let us watch-out!","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"190 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116392571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been widely embraced as a standard infrastructure over which a variety of applications can be deployed. We are witnessing a growing number of professionals relying upon the Internet to perform their work. Collaboration tools enable teams of workers in disparate locations to work together using a variety of approaches. A similar revolution to that of the WWW is taking place within the mobile telecommunications domain, with a burgeoning requirement for wireless Internet access, via the wireless application protocol (WAP). The wireless application protocol (WAP) has been proposed as a way to get Internet (or a sort of Internet) to the small wireless and mobile devices, e.g. mobile phones, while accommodating for the special characteristics of such devices. Originally, WAP was designed with a gateway in the middle, acting as the interpreter between the Internet protocol stack and the wireless application protocol stack. The WAP gateway forwards web content to the mobile phone in a way intended to accommodate the limited bandwidth of the mobile network and the mobile phonepsilas limited processing capability. However, the gateway introduces a security hole, which renders WAP unsuitable for any security-sensitive services. Through a set of standard releases, primarily version 1.2.1 (June 2000) and version 2.0 (July2001), security issues have been addressed. This paper presents a framework that enables two or more mobile users to collaborate and exchange messages using mobile devices. The system is described provides on-line multi-user collaboration service based on the IRC (Internet relay chat) protocol, transmitted via WAP that offers a WML interface and We also discuss the security hole and the gateway-based design that has led to it, including the business and architectural considerations underlying the design. A number of ways to correct the situation are discussed, including application level security, which still hasnpsilat been fixed in the WAP 2.0 standard of the July 2001 release. Finally we observe, that although version 2.0 allows skipping the gateway thereby tightening security, the added cost is not negligible.","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"338 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124762754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Team members propose courses of action by creating scenarios, i.e., causally linked sequences of actions, key factors or events in the past, present, or future, and short or long-term mission outcomes. The TGDAS builds formally correct decision models via a scenario matrix that compares scenarios and identifies significant branch points, and by means of pre-stored editable templates that supply variables and relationships matching the scenario branch points in the relevant type of mission and situation. Model-based analyses order the options and let the collaborative team focus on variables that have the most impact on decisions and outcomes.","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124883975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the aircraft maintenance intuitive troubleshooting (AMIT) research project design team was evaluating collaboration technologies to incorporate within the AMIT job performance aid (JPA), three questions kept coming to mind. First, what is truly needed? Second, what will improve performance? Thirdly, what would the end user prefer? To obtain these answers, the research team hosted several aircraft maintenance user group (AMUG) sessions and design consideration tests (DCTs) to identify both user preferences and performance issues associated with various collaborative tools that could be used in the flightline maintenance arena. Based on the results of this work, the team selected a text-based messaging system to embed in the final AMIT interface. The text-based system was a simple, yet effective method to solve many collaboration issues in flightline maintenance. The AMIT team then embarked on a 4 month constrained field test of the final AMIT JPA prototype at Luke Air Force Base to measure performance improvements between current processes (Without-AMIT) and future processes (With-AMIT). The purpose of this paper is to discuss and analyze the results of the collaboration segment of the field test.","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131620457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Low fidelity computer simulation has been used extensively for testing artificial intelligence and control algorithms for robotic systems. Until recently operator training using simulators has been impractical due to the cost of the computer systems necessary to simulate robot operation with high fidelity. The rapid increase in the power of desktop computers over the last decade has led to cheap, high fidelity vehicle simulation. A review of the literature shows that there are many robot simulators in use with a variety of features and fidelity levels. There has been no prior work attempting to classify the functionality of these robot simulators.","PeriodicalId":363805,"journal":{"name":"2007 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130758595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
